SUMMARY:Katina Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:Katina Ceremony\nThis year we are celebrating Katina Ceremony on the date of November 10th\, 2024 at NMR Meditation Center. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKathina is an important celebration in the Buddhist calendar. This festival celebrates the Buddhist community joining together to present the monks in their monastery with new robes. Buddhist monks dedicate their lives to their religion and only have eight possessions\, all of which are gifted to them.\nWhat do you do on Katina?\nTraditionally\, to generate merit or good karma\, lay followers make offerings of the four requisites—food\, clothing\, medicine\, and shelter—to replenish the monastery’s supplies after the long monastic retreat. Historically\, the kathina is especially for the offering of monastic robes.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Loy Krathong Festival
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_column_text]\nLoy Krathong Festival 2024\nLoy Krathong\, also known as the Water Lantern Festival\, is the biggest Thailand festival in November. With comfortable temperatures and festival vibes in Thailand\, the whole country will be decorated with water lanterns floating along rivers\, and Thai people will go to the streets to watch the float parade and go to the temples for blessing. \nWhat is the Water Lantern Festival?\nIt is a festival where lights are put down in the water and pray. People will use banana leaves\, fruits\, or flowers to make water lanterns. In addition\, Thais believe that these lanterns can drive away bad luck. \nIn the past\, Loy Krathong was used to thank water gods and rivers for their nurturing gifts. At present\, this festival is also regarded as Valentine’s Day in Thailand. Young men and women lower water lanterns at the river to pray for a relationship. Couples put down lanterns by the river to pray for their long love and happiness. The locals attach great importance to this festival\, no matter whether in cities or towns\, as long as there is water\, water lanterns are floating on the water’s surface\, flashing pieces of lights. \n [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_gallery interval=”10″ images=”12749\,12416\,12418\,12417″ img_size=”large”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
